““Spiritual disciplines more easily introduced into daily activities ▪ School calendar formulated to dates that work best for our family’s needs ▪ Free time in our days for relaxation, family fun and bonding (instead of time spent driving from school to school) ▪ Strong parent-child bonds and sibling-to-sibling bonds more easily developed ▪ Removal from negative influences and peer pressure during the early impressionable years ▪ Difficult subjects discussed at the appropriate age for each individual child ▪ Difficult subject matter presented from a biblical worldview and within the context of our strong parent-child bond. ▪ Real world learning incorporated into lesson plans and practiced in daily routines ▪ Field trips and “outside the book” learning available as we see fit What We Hope to Give Our Kids: ▪ A close relationship with Christ and a complete picture of what it means to be a Christ-follower ▪ A strong moral character rooted in biblical integrity, perseverance and humility ▪ A direction and purpose for where God has called them in life ▪ A deep relationship and connection with us, their parents ▪ Rich, ever-growing relationships with their siblings ▪ Real-world knowledge in everything from how to cook and do laundry to how to resolve conflicts and work with those that are “different” from them ▪ A comprehensive, well-rounded education in the traditional school subjects””
